This exceptional vintage is an unfettered, mature expression of a dry, hot growing season displaying fresh Spy apple, lemon and pineapple notes. Unburdened by any lashes of oak, the pure but quiet heart of the Chardonnay grape is allowed to shine through. Taking in the aroma, one can easily imagine sitting by a cool brook on a hot summer’s day with the essences of white peach, Bosc pear, and water dashed on a hot river stone wafting on the breeze. Supported by a bright acidity and subtle lees management, this wine has shoulders…..although elegantly splashed by warm sunlight.
